Tennessee Buy Out of Game

[MCMLXXX]

Tennessee just paid Army $500,000 to buy out next years game. Some may remember that after we defeated Tennessee in 1975, they sent a $10,000 check. Fry called their AD because the contract for the 1975 game was for considerably more. The Tennessee AD said that check will be mailed soon, this check is the buy out next years game

It is always appropriate to reference our victory over Tennessee almost 50 years ago  the week after a loss.

😆 You know me so well, NTWL!

I forgot—who’d we lose to, MCMLXXX?

And again (for all the GMG.com  newbies) we won the UT-Knoxville game with Glenn Ray—our 3’rd string MG QB.  

College Licensing, Inc. (indirectly) came as a result of our win over the Vols.  Bill Battle got fired from UT—he went to his ex college Coach Bear Bryant asking him for a start up loan for a new kind of sports-oriented apparel business—Wala!  College Licensing, Inc. was born!
Talk about Bill Battle turning lemons into lemonade. He has to be a zillionaire!😎
